Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The SOAP Service Description Language (SSDL) is a SOAP centric contract definition language for Web Services. SSDL provides the base framework for a range of protocol description frameworks which at one end of the spectrum can be a simpler, SOAP-focussed, direct replacement for WSDL while at the other end of the spectrum a more expressive contract definition language that can enable formal validation and reasoning about the protocols that a Web Service supports. Four protocol description frameworks are provided with the base SSDL specification though thirdparties are free to implement others to fit their needs.
